Note: I do have another Couchsurfing profile floating around somewhere, but I can't figure out the login info! I spent years as a full time circus performer, and now I'm back in the world of academia. I love everything from theatre to fossils, hiking, exploration, and meeting interesting people along the way.

I've lived a peculiar life, and I enjoy exchanging stories with new people.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I usually travel alone, but sometimes my boyfriend joins me. We're both adventurers and are constantly seeking out new experiences. I'm a respectful guest, and I'm happy to bring gifts to hosts- just tell me what you like!

I'm allergic to both smoke and long-haired dogs, so I try not to stay in homes where both are prominent indoors.

As a host, I'm pretty hands off, yet friendly. School and work keep me very busy, and I'm also an introvert, so I may or may not go exploring with you- but at the very least, I'm happy to provide recommendations for you so you can get the full experience of Dallas. I think the mutual give/take aspect of couchsurfing is really rewarding, and I'm glad to get to be a part of both sides of that experience.

音乐、电影和书籍

I'll have to make this short, since there's no way to type out a comprehensive list. Here's a sample set:

Bowie, Pink Floyd, Smashing Pumpkins, Depeche Mode, Chopin, Metric

Charlie Chaplin films, Stardust, True Romance, Shawshank Redemption, Indiana Jones

Blink (Malcolm Gladwell), Stiff (Mary Roach), Longitude (Dava Sobel), Outliers (Gladwell), Good Omens (Pratchett/Gaiman), To Kill a Mockingbird (Lee)

教，学，和分享

I am here to share experiences, and it is my genuine belief that we can all learn something from every person we've ever interacted with.
